you might want to check the dimensions of the subframe. IF your lucky you can just drop the Bonnes, and bolt up the Rora

Thats more of less what we had in mind. They share the same platform, so they should be able to drop and bolt up. While it'* dropped out, it would be a great time for a powerwasher and POR-15, and going ahead and updating the front ends suspension as well(bushings, rod ends, etc....).

the aurora and bonneville platforms are not identical... make sure you measure up to make sure. they share a major amount of parts and geometery, but not 100%

Good to know about that then. I mainly more concerned about clearances in the engine bay, differences in the rad. and cooling fans, brake booster, heater hoses, etc....
